Michael DiSanto, UFC - ...Rampage-Forrest doesn’t need a storyline beyond the fact that two extremely competitive, proud fighters will test themselves inside the ultimate proving ground – the Octagon – in a fight that, based on the style matchup, has very real potential to be the most thrilling 205-lb title bout in recent memory. In other words, this is a fight that sells itself.

Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - A former standout baseball player, Cole Miller always seemed destined for a career in sports, and most figured it would be on the diamond. But after devoting much of his young life to the game, something was missing, and what was supposed to be a fun pastime turned into a job before he started getting paid to do it.
Stephen Quinn, UFC - Saturday’s UFC 86 card at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas will keep the fireworks coming long after the Independence Day celebrations have ended. Will Forrest Griffin be able to upset Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson? Can Ricardo Almeida submit Patrick Cote? Read on to get your UFC fantasy game fix.
Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - Maybe I’m just grasping for straws, but I get the impression that the water cooler conversations on the Monday after UFC 81 in February went something like this: “Hey, that new guy Almeida looked pretty good. That was some sick jiu-jitsu. Hope the UFC brings him back.”
UFC 86, in which Quinton "Rampage" Jackson puts his light heavyweight title on the line against Forrest Griffin, has all the makings of a great contest.
